Green Apple and Tea Towel

Green Apple and Tea Towel #6 of 6
SOLD
This is a nice juicy 8" x 8" oil on canvas. It's a good oversize for a small subject. This is also the final painting of the series of 6.


Hope it's beautiful where you are. It's an incredibly beautiful and warm day here.

Apples and Apples

Applefest:10" x 10" Original Oil on Canvas: Available.

Funny, out of all the paintings I'm doing recently this one was the one I thought would be a breeze! HA. Not so. It was probably the most difficult.


Did you know a little over a hundred years ago there were 1100 varieties of apples in this country? I was shocked to learn that fact recently. There are appoximately 130 heritage apples left growing in the U.S. while just a handful (literally) are sold in our local groceries. What a shame and how did that happen?

In The Fog

Sold

After months of white landscape, today we have a thick white fog sitting on top of our white lake, adjacent to the white ground. A blank canvas of sorts. The nice thing about blank canvas is it can change to a beautiful and colorful canvas very quickly.


Color is calling! It wants to throw itself all over the place. If it's true that bunnies will be painting the landscape at Easter we're all in for a well deserved treat!!


I've spent the afternoon painting strawberries. They've invaded my dreams lately so expect to see them in upcoming paintings. :)
